I love fall. Love everything about it. Crisp sweater weather. Football games. The first fires of the season. Long coats in which to get lost. Gray cloudy days. Even rain.

Have I mentioned I also love to eat?

He loves fall, he loves to eat, so what could be better than a Fall Supper?

For me, Fall Suppers mean comfort food. Long braised meats. Lots of greens. Root vegetables. Apples and pumpkins. Personally, I can (and do) eat this food all year long. But it was supremely satisfying to have the first true fall supper last Sunday, serving a few of my favorite dishes I’d not prepared in a while. Some very good friends were coming over for dinner, one of whom unexpectedly and wonderfully became engaged two days before. So we turned the dinner into a small celebration. And even though it was #@%$ 90 degrees in November, we had a great fall supper which I present to you.

This is a very easy supper to prepare, particularly if you have time to stick something in the oven the day before. Most of the ‘work’ is done well before, so you can relax and not stress the day of.
